DTI Mission to CERN on IT


Final report available (pdf)


Welcome to the External Collaboration and Outreach site of the IT Department.

In addition to participating and contributing to physics collaborations,  the activities of the IT Department  include

  • collaborations with external partners to evaluate, design or deploy technologies
  • actions to disseminate the knowledge and know-how created in the department (Outreach)
  • actions to actually transfer, share or jointly develop technologies (actual Technology Transfer).

This site describes these various activities.

The External Collaboration and Outreach Channels in IT  

IT department activities focus on the fast changing Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs), which often require that the necessary developments are conducted in collaboration with external partners.

  • As a result, collaborations and partnering with external organizations are essential channels in the department for interactions with the outside world.
     

  • A major channel for outreach is education, conferences, scientific publications and more generally outreach activities.
     

  • A major channel for actual TT is transfer of software technologies via collaboration agreements or more frequently via open source mechanisms.
